Chapter 1 Redone
Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto. But if I did, then you would have never seen all these cool characters in the manga or anime that are in them today.
(Somewhere on the borders of the Fire Country)
On a dirt path, an old man was walking his cattle to a nearby village to trade.
"Well Ol' Betsy, we'll be in the village soon. I just hope nothing happens on our way there." The old man said to his precious cow, trying to comfort her. Ol' Betsy replied with a 'MOO', and with a ring from her bell.
The old man and his cow had finally arrived at the village with nothing happening to them. However, looking up to the sky, the man saw something fly across the sky. Then another, and then a third.
"That's odd. Aren't shooting stars supposed to be at night? Ah, it must be my old eyes playing tricks on me." he shook his head and continued on to the trading post that the village had.
Back at the path that the old man and his cow were at. Something came flying through the air, crashing right into the ground. The object made no crater, but instead stabbed into the ground, like a large knife. The object appeared to be a large crystal with a purple-black color.
Just as the purple crystal fell into the ground, two more followed in its place along the path. The crystals remained still imbedded into the ground for a few minutes. And as mysterious as they were when they first landed, they got even more weirder. Steam shot out of one of the crystal's sides as the steamed area began to lift itself to reveal that the large gem was hollow on the inside.
A hand emerged from the inside of one of the empty crystals grabbing onto the sedge of the opening. Out from one of these crystals came a boy. With his short white hair and facial features, the boy appeared to be in his early teens. A headband with an unknown symbol, five curved lines merging in the center, was placed on the boy's forehead just above his blue eyes. He was wearing a gray vest with white trimming along it, and a black undershirt beneath it. His gray pants were padded along the shins and outer thigh areas and over his black shinobi sandals, his weapons pouch being located on his right hip. Two strange, dark blue, cylindrical, mechanisms were attached to his arms, each having a hole at the front of them, above the hands.
Another one of the crystals had also opened. Emerging from it was another boy about the same age as the one before. Instead of white like the one before, this green eyed boy had gray hair falling down to in between his shoulders with his headband placed on his forehead as well. His facial features were more beastly than the previous person's, but still retained a humane sense. He had displayed the same kind of vest and undershirt, but with shoulder pads and a darker shade of gray. The black pants went down to his ankles, but had no guards or pads, or even a weapons pouch for that matter. Instead, on his left shoulder pad were a large assortment of kunai along piece of string going down his back. The kunai all had several holes placed around their handles at random while having a slitted hole at the ends.
The final crystal opened up revealing yet another boy the same age as the others. His jet black hair, matching his cold eyes, flowed down below his hips. His headband also on his forehead, but appeared to be more loose than the other two. Not sharing a matching vest like his two companions, the boy only had on a black undershirt, sleeves running down to his elbow, with white trimming. He possessed a weapons pouch at the left side of his back an another at his right thigh, the one on the back being more rectangular. Strapped onto the boys back, was held a large sword at about five feet in length with a light blue ball at the base. A gap in the middle of the blade extended from its tip to the blue ball. An strange aura could be sensed around the figure.
"Well. That was very enjoyable." The gray haired boy said, while rubbing his neck in pain.
"Not really the best trip you could have huh, brother Chichi?" the black haired boy said, making sure that his sword was still on his back.
"Where are we exactly, brother Musuko?" Chichi asked the other boy. The white haired boy looked up into the sky in reply, analyzing his surroundings.
After a quick analysis, "We're just three days away from Konohagakure." said Musuko.
"Well I guess we better get going then. The Chunin Exams aren't gonna wait just for us." said Seirei, the black haired boy. The three unknown shinobi walked down the path, leaving behind their crystal capsules where they landed. Their next stop was to be in Konohagakure for this years Chunin Exams.
(Three days later, in Konohagakure)
Team 7 was training vigorously for the Chunin Exams that were to start the very next day. The blonde, known as Uzumaki Naruto, was trying his best to hold his ground against his other male team mate, Uchiha Sasuke. Meanwhile, Sasuke was just breaking a sweat from their little taijutsu training. Finally, the raven haired boy threw in a kick that sent the blonde ninja over a fence. A fence which their third team mate, a girl named Haruno Sakura, was also sitting on. Seeing the boy hurtling toward her getting larger by the second, she tried to get away, but was too slow; Sakura fell off the fence, taking Naruto with her in a horrendous plummet to the ground.
Once they landed, the blonde boy was laying atop his pink haired partner in a very, "suggestive" position. When they saw each other, both of them froze with shock at the predicament they were in at the moment. But all of that changed when Sakura's temper kicked in. ... and sent it flying into Naruto's face, which hurled him back in the air, over the fence, and landing his body right next to Sasuke.
"That bad, huh dobe?" Naruto merely nodded his head in silence as blood came down his broken nose.
Coming around the fence the angered pink haired girl began yelling at Naruto. "You better hope no one saw that, or you won't be alive for the exams tomorrow!" She said waving her fist in front of her.
"Well then, he better get running." an unknown voice came from an alley way near the fence. Out popped a white haired shinobi, Musuko, quietly chuckling. "Because I saw the whole thing." He said that as he closed up a notebook in his hand and placed it in his weapons pouch.
Sakura, staring evilly at the pouch. "What...did...you...write...in...that?" she said, each word with even more killer intent than the last.
"Just some notes about you guys and my first impression. I do that to all new ninja I see." He gave a smile to the girl. Sadly, the smile wasn't returned with what he hoped for. Musuko felt even more killer intent than the times before coming from the kunoichi now. "Oh crap." Musuko started performing handsigns as Sakura came running after him.
"Pervert! I know that you were writing about what happened! Give me the notebook!" She threw her fist right into the white haired boys face, sending him flying into the wall only to be turned into a log.
Sakura, knowing that this was a kawarimi, started to look around for the presumed perv.
Back with Sasuke and Naruto, Sasuke turned over to a nearby tree to see Musuko hanging upside down by his legs writing in his notebook, shaking his head.
"Big forehead, over tempered, and powerful punch." he spoke out loud as he wrote in his notebook. Sasuke merely smirked at the first comment, knowing how true that was.
"Determined, friendly, and not all that bright." speaking once again. Sasuke once again smirked knowing who the whitey was talking about. Naruto had now gotten up and was mad at the last comment that the boy made, not hearing the first two at all.
"Hey mister, I am too bright! Who gives you the right to go judging people anyway!" Naruto yelled out. Musuko mumbled one last comment right after looking at Narutos face once more. Then he began to write out loud once more.
"Self-centered, has a kekkei genkai, and might be, 'gay'." finishing up his writing, he flipped shut his note book and placed it back in his pocket. Sasuke was now angered at the comments made about him, but was also amazed that the kid found out that he had a kekkei genkai by just looking at him. The raven haired shinobi was about to ask him how he knew, but was rudely interrupted by his number one fangirl.
"How dare you call Sasuke-kun gay! He is not gay and he will marry me some day!" Musuko looked at the bulging vein on the massive forehead. He turned over to Sasuke with an empathetic look on his face.
"Fangirls, huh?" Sasuke merely bowed his head down in shame, giving the boy his answer. "Don't worry, if she really does care for you, she'll leave you alone. Either that or try her best to keep you happy." Musuko gave the Uchiha a smile, and with that, fled the scene. The three were left by themselves, each with their own thoughts about the stranger, and how he could read them so well.
Elsewhere in Konoha, a boy with a pineapple shaped haircut was relaxing near a tree, as his two other team mates were training with each other. The pineapple kid then sat up out of his lazy daze as he sensed someone from afar coming closer to their area. As he rose up, his two team mates noticed as well and looked in the direction the boy was looking in. On the path, walking by himself, was a gray haired genin with kunais on his shoulder, and staring up into the sky, hands in pockets, apparently thinking about something.
"Hey, do you mind?" The female of the trio shouted as Chichi started walking right into their training ground. "We're training here!"
The gray haired boy didn't respond, as he was still looking up into the sky.
"Hey, mister! Did you hear me? I said-"
"Yeah, I heard you." Chichi cut the kunoichi short, while still looking up into the sky. "But I decided to ignore you." The blonde girl was now furious at the stranger for ignoring her. She threw a punch at the back of his head, only to hit nothing as the body of Chichi vanished into thin air. He reappeared lying down next to the tree next to the pineapple boy.
"You're too aggressive. Make sure the next time you attack, it's not out of anger." he stood up and walked away. But before he was out of sight, Chichi spoke once more. "Lazy kid, actually try to train, otherwise you won't pass." and with that he disappeared from sight. Leaving behind him three confused shinobi, one not as much since he left it as being troublesome.
In a bookstore somewhere else, Kakashi, the sensei of Team 7, had exited out of the shop with a new book from his favorite series, Icha Icha Paradise. With his masked nose deep into the book, reading everything that he could, he did not see another person coming towards him, who also had his faced stuck in a book.
The two collided with each other and fell down, dropping there books onto the ground as the result.
"My apologies. I wasn't looking where I was going." Kakashi said, picking up what he thought was his book.
"It's okay, I wasn't looking where I was going either." the black haired boy said as he grabbed what he believed to be his book. The two waved to each other and went straight into their books once more. But it only took both of them a few steps, until they completely stopped where they were. As if they were mirrors of each other, the two readers walked backwards at the same time and pace to where they last stood before they collided. The two looked out of there books to look each other in the eyes, or eye from Kakashi's standpoint.
"You read too much." Kakashi merely said, as they traded their books.
"And you're a pervert." Seirei replied, and continued walking down the path.
Kakashi thought, 'What on earth was he reading? It all looked like a bunch of scribbles.' but being Kakashi, he simply set it aside and went straight back to his book.
(At night)
Near the center of the city was located a hotel which held most of the shinobi that had traveled to Konoha for the exams. To the south was Chichi, walking towards the entrance of their hotel, and still with his head up in the clouds. His brother, Musuko, was coming from the northeast, writing some last notes in his little booklet. And finally, the brother Seirei, came walking along, carrying his book next to him.
The three then met up with each other at the entrance, bowing to each other.
"Report, brothers." Seirei asked his siblings.
"Their defenses are weak, but that is probably because of the exams. The countries are supposed to be at peace for them anyways." Chichi answered. "Also it doesn't seem that they have any defense from an air attack."
"Alright. Good work brother Chichi. What about you brother Musuko?"
"Their shinobi appear to be strong, but some ninja around here seem to have a hidden intent for this exam. And to make it more interesting, they all seem to be from two villages."
"It might be an alliance between the villages. But what would they be planning?"
"I don't know brother Chichi, but I bet there will be more casualties than just from these exams. For now, we shall retire and be on our guard tomorrow." Seirei pronounced, as Chichi and Musuko bowed down once more and went into the hotel. The black haired brother remained outside for awhile longer, opening his book to re-read a segment in it. Once he read it he closed the book and shook his head.
"I hate spoilers." Seirei put the book in his weapons pouch and went into the hotel to sleep for the night.
Naruto was opening up his door to his apartment, when a question popped into his head that had been itching at him ever since that afternoon.
'Who was that white haired kid? He judged me so easily, like he knew me, but he just met me.' closing the door behind him, Naruto got out of his clothes and into his pajamas. He wanted to get a good nights sleep, because the next day was going to be the first day of the Chunin Exams.
Short chapter in my opinion, but don't worry they will get longer. Please review as not only will it give me more self-esteem (don't worry i don't have a low self-esteem) but it will also put you in my respect, as long as the reviews are good. Anyways, hope to see you next chapter, I'm out.
